Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro HDV Capture with Device Control

  • HDV Capture with Device Control

    Posted by Matt Dubber on June 29, 2006 at 7:52 pm

    I know I must be missing something simple since no one else in this forum seems to be having the same problems I am. SONY HVR-M10U is the unit I am using. I can plug it in via firewire, WindowsXP sees it and says it’s ready to use. Premiere can see the audio and video if I set device control to [NONE] and I can then capture audio and video. But for some reason Premiere can’t get device control. Any thoughts?? I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that I also have the Decklink hardware installed on this system….anyone else had any problems? I saw online that someone had problems using this deck, but they said to use the Sony FX1 (?) device control preset….I don’t have that in my list of options. I must be missing something.

    I have a link to a tutorial you might like. Check my web site. It is in the second paragraph on the main page.

    Thanks for the link….I have read through this Charlie White tutorial before and it made no difference. HOWEVER, the problem is solved now. Here was my solution:

    Uninstall Decklink/Blacmkmagic drivers.

    That’s it, now all of my HDV and DV workflow is seamless and flawless. I came up with that solution when I tried hooking up my consumer Sony DV camera from home on this system and it didn’t work either. Actually it didn’t work in any firewire controllable program (Windows Media Encoder, Premiere, Movie Maker…) So I uninstalled Decklink/Blacmkmagic drivers and now everything is just fine. There is a Decklink update (v5.6) that I will install next and see if that fixes the firewire conflict so I can go back and forth.
